Installing and configuring Alfresco Outlook Integration

Alfresco Outlook Integration is an extension to
Alfresco and Microsoft Outlook, that allows you to save and file your emails to Alfresco from
within Microsoft Outlook, in a centralized and structured way.

You can drag and drop emails in and out of the repository, and add metadata automatically
when an email is filed. Other features include leveraging Alfresco's in-built workflow
processing and filtered search capabilities.

Advanced metadata support includes:

Full support for custom models

A configurable and dynamic metadata dialog

The ability to map metadata configuration to a path, folder type, or aspect

The ability to assign the same metadata to a set of emails in Microsoft Outlook, or a
set of files in your file system

You can apply a sorted view to the Alfresco repository (from within Microsoft Outlook), and
page through a folder or site if it contains a large number of files.

You can also create new versions of
existing documents, review the version history of a versioned document, and revert back to
previous versions.
